Scientists have successfully measured the magnetic field of the Lighthouse pulsar’s nebula using NASA’s IXPE. Their measurements confirm the theory that high-energy particles escape along the galaxy’s ...

The discovery also sheds light on why some people are disturbed by low-frequency noise while others barely notice it. If the ...

Exoplanet WD 1856 b, shown in this artist’s concept, is a gas giant that orbits its star at a distance 50 times closer than Earth orbits the Sun. Observations by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope ...

The ocean floor is constantly growing, forged by magmas and stretched by tectonic forces at mid-ocean ridges (MORs). Yet despite their importance, these submarine boundaries remain among the hardest ...

When we watch a drama unfold on screen, we instinctively begin to sketch a mental map of the characters: who is allied, who is opposed, and where the tensions lie. But how does the brain organize this ...

This image of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was taken on 18 January 2026 with the FORS2 instrument on ESO’s Very Large ...

Scientists reveal how one of the world's deadliest superbugs evolved.

A Martian meteorite has unveiled something extraordinary: a previously unknown rock type containing garnet, the first time this mineral has ever been identified on Mars. This discovery is more than a ...

Physicists have been trying to use quantum mechanics for decades to build computers that could solve problems currently out of reach of classical machines. Options are many, including superconducting ...

For most of us, quantum physics feels like something that belongs in the invisible world of atoms and photons. It’s the science of the very small, where particles can be in two places at once, or ...

In a new analysis, researchers at the USC Mark and Mary Stevens Neuroimaging and Informatics Institute (Stevens INI) detected significant divergences in the expression of Alzheimer’s disease risk ...
